Work History

July 2026

6 Commits • 3 Features

Jul 1, 2026

July 2026 highlights: Implemented transactional cascading deletion for WordPress subscribers to ensure safe removal of related data (segment memberships, custom fields, and tags), added data-consistency tooling to clean orphaned subscriber fields and tags, clarified segment-cache counting semantics to eliminate ambiguity around non-consolidation, and optimized segment membership counting with a single method and index-friendly status filtering. Documentation improvements now reflect the status-count caching cascade and invariants, easing future maintenance. Overall, these changes reduce stale data, improve admin operations, and accelerate segment-related queries.
